    Based on the sheer quality of the product (and on your stated intention to provide disk-writing capabilities sometime in the future), I decided to purcahse BAE even though I don’t use my PC for music playing – and also recommended it to a few friends, who were as amazed as I was and will probably license it as well when their demo period expires. You may find yourself with quite a few Brazilian users in the near future.

    Anyway, I have two questions:

    1. I have a dual-boot PC (one OS for work, the other for games and the Web). Since both versions of Windows reside on the same machine and evidently won’t be used at the same time, is it OK to install my registered version on both?

    2. Do you plan to inform registered owners of upgrades (particularly the much-awaited disk-writing version) or should we just check in here occasionally?

    Incidentally, perhaps it would be useful to others to know that it is possible to get music processed AND recorded using two sound cards: I play a CD (or an MP3 file) in the PC using the BAE-controlled sound card and use an audio cable to connect its output to the input of the second card, where it is recorded with Sound Forge using gap detection (which results in independent fully processed audio files for each track). If you do this with a whole CD, it is possible to rename the resulting files automatically using Tag & Rename. It is a bit convoluted, not very precise (due to the analog leg in this journey) and takes some time, as the audio has to be played at normal speed, but it works.

    Hi Aleph!

    1) Yes, this is fine. It’s still just one PC, and both versions would not be running at the same time.

    2) For something as big as that, we will probably send a notice out by email. So far, we have only mass-emailed once, and that was with the release of BAE 1.2 — we changed the type of product keys, so we had to email new (unique) product keys to every single customer 😉.

    Indeed it’s possible to capture with two sound cards — it’s just that it’s a hassle.

    Best,
    ///Leif
